We did not get all of the way to Steamboat Springs yesterday.  We camped off of the road.  We waited for the rain to stop to set up our tents.  Today we hiked the rest of the dirt county road and paved roads to where we hitched to Steamboat.  We were picked up pretty quickly and dropped off at the visitors center.  It's really been interesting doing all of this hitchiking because we meet so many different people and get a glimpse of their lives.

So a few mantras and themes have emerged for this hike.  They are: 1) steady plodding, 2) take it as it comes, 3) it is what it is 4) suck it up cupcake.  This last one comes from Hikeaholic. The weather forecast is pretty bad the next two days.  A special hazardous report issued for heavy rain, thunderstorms with cloud to ground lightning, mudslides and flooding.  So we are trying to come up with a plan.
